Frequently Asked Questions
It's a significant upgrade, offering more refined EQ control and a wider range of tonal possibilities compared to older Spector preamps.
The 20.8mm - 23.6mm profile is generally considered comfortable, but it's on the thicker side – players with very small hands might prefer to try it first.
Regular cleaning with a quality guitar polish is recommended, and avoid direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or cracking of the poplar burl.
